Why should I not be surprised by this, taken from the Sunday Express?
“POLICE will be ordered not to charge Muslim extremists in many hate crime cases – to stop them becoming more militant.
“Guidelines will tell forces to press for conviction only in cases of clear-cut criminal acts.
“Officers will be advised not to proceed when evidence of lawbreaking is “borderline”.
“Examples of crimes to which a blind eye may be turned include incitement to religious hatred or viewing extremist material on the internet.
“Last night critics warned that the move could mean Islamic radicals being give the freedom to encourage violence.
“Some saw the move as a politically correct attempt to appease extremists who hate Britain.
“It could even mean officers tolerating many activities of Muslim preachers of hate like the hook-handed cleric Abu Hamza.”
My feelings are if you have a law, then it’s a law – you enforce it come what may! If the damn law’s wrong, you change it!
You never adopt a policy of one law for one section of society, but not for another. Therein, folks, is the road to hell. You simply undermine the entire structure of law!
“A senior Whitehall official said the guidance was being drawn up as part of a drive to use persuasion rather than the criminal justice system to fight extremism.”
So I guess the same’s going to apply to the BNP, is it? We’re all going to turn a blind eye while they preach hatred, religious and racial, and incite violence (because that’s what always happens when you allow incitement of this nature!)
VIOLENCE!
Another winner from our Gordon!

EU elections
May 28, 2009
The EU elections are fast approaching, hand-in-hand with the “silly season” , as Postman Trot, Olivier Besancenot, marshals his revolutionary, anticapitalist forces on the streets of France…there are those who believe this fierce critic of Nicolas Sarkozy may capture up to 10% of the vote!
Way to go, Ollie!
Geert Wilders, barred from entry to the UK earlier this year, is predicted to do particularly well with his Freedom Party in the Netherlands. The Dutch authorities are still seething that one of their elected MP’s was declined admission to our country by the Home Secretary…a major diplomatic balls-up incident played-down in the UK by the Government.
Then we have the man who likes kebabs…so much so he couldn’t possibly be a Nazi, Heinz-Christian Strache, heir to the late Jörg Haider, populist preacher of Austria first, has led a highly controversial campaign for the elections with the usual “Islam-baiting and anti-immigrant rhetoric”. His Freedom Party is expected to take between 15% and 20% of the vote…but might well take more!
Herr Strache says “there can be positive examples of immigration, but not if people refuse to integrate or drift into crime. It is not about keeping Austria white, just about protecting its traditional community. We see Europe as Christian, and we believe it’s at risk of Islamisation.”
Herr Strache continued “I have heard that every second name in some schools in Britain will soon be Mohammed, rather than John or Paul. Do you want the residents of Britain to become a minority and to have English as a minority language in a school?”
And, of course, in the UK the BNP are predicted to do well…to gain at least one seat, but maybe more..?
So, in many ways the EU elections increasingly appear to be about choices between extremes, the far right or far left gaining ground on the centre…what would happen I wonder if the EU Parliament came, in time, to be dominated by the far right (for example)? What would the UK’s position be then? With eighty percent of its legislation passed by the European Parliament, would Nu-labour leap to enforce anti-Islamic legislation passed by the EU parliament? Or (less likely perhaps) the extreme left gained control and began to systematically dismantle capitalism…
What about the current raft of potential legislation from the EU on monitoring and control of the banking sector? Haven’t heard much about that, have we? But it will impact on each and every one of us in time…watch this space…and your tax bill!
Candidate told she’s “too White and Jewish” to be selected!
April 30, 2009
Had some unpublishable comments on the BNP post..no surprises there! It’s a funny old world; at times it has me buzzing round angry as a wasp with piles (sorry, make that hemorrhoids for the sake of the Political Correctness Police).
I speak out about events in Gaza; tell it as I see it, and immediately I’m an Anti-Semite and a Nazi. I write about problems in the Muslim community, and I’m a Racist, Anti-Muslim, whatever.
The truth is, this labeling is all a load of old bollocks (sorry, again, aging testicles). Individuals and groups use it as a form of attack, often when they themselves are in occupation of an untenable position, in order to obscure the real issues – which could be Israeli intransigence, or Muslim Jihad; the BNP or immigration into the UK. Whatever. Slop in a big dollop of “you are a racist / anti-Semite / communist / Nazi / conservative / Nulabour arse wipe (delete as applicable), and immediately you have “diverted” any argument from its original point.
So, for the sake impartiality, I thought I’d post this little gem (missed it earlier):
Labour Party Embroiled in Race Row after Candidate told she was “too White and Jewish” to be selected!
Mahmood Hussain (Labour Councilor) is alleged to have said “My Muslim members don’t want you because you are Jewish.”
Perhaps Mr. Hain would join with me in suggesting Nu-labour should be “confronted” over this, and wherever possible denied a “platform” to impart such messages of hate?
He wouldn’t?
No bloody surprise there, then!
I think its called positive discrimination?
The BNP and Europe
April 29, 2009
The BNP is under attack yet again. Peter Hain says “we must fight them as we did the National Front in the 70s”. There’s little doubt in the minds of the majority, that the BNP support the concept “British Jobs For British Workers”. They are also the only political party to unequivocally state they would take Britain out of Europe.
Mr. Hain suggests: “that the BNP needs to be confronted wherever its supporters march or appear in public; and they must also be denied platforms to spread their hate.” In other words they should be denied the right to speak. He carefully adds: “Whenever they are ascendant (the BNP) locally, racial violence and racial hatred are barely beneath the surface.”
But we all know preaching messages to incite racial violence is illegal. It’s a crime. Any BNP candidate preaching such a message publicly would find him or herself facing arrest and prosecution. It’s interesting to note also, Mr. Hain’s claim that “racial violence and racial hatred are barely beneath the surface”. “Barely”? How does he determine, and measure the degree of this?
I should make it clear I’m not a supporter of the BNP or there racial policies.
Nor am I a supporter of anyone who seems to be suggesting that a political party should be “confronted” (I assume Mr. Hain’s means physically?) and then likens the BNP to Mosley’s Blackshirts, and explains they were “physically stopped”…which they were, by crowds estimated at 300,000 strong, during the Battle of Cable Street in October 1936. 10,000 police, 3,000 blackshirts. The police baton charged the anti-fascist crowds repeatedly. There were many broken heads, and much material damage. Is an incident of that magnitude what Mr. Hain is actually advocating?
If we ignore for the moment what may or may not be an attempt to incite violence against the BNP by Mr Hain, what facts are we left with?
BNP policies tend to be “leftish – although they are referred to as rightwing, presumably because of the racial issues and the exhibition of nationalism – certainly further to the left than Nu-Labour (centralised control, trade tariffs, state owned businesses, etc). They contain that seductive mantra “British Jobs for British Workers”…which rightly or wrongly is going to appeal to anyone who feels they have “missed out” because of the presence of “foreign nationals” etc. And they want to exit the EU.
When it comes down to basics Mr. Hain is bemoaning the fact that the BNP is kicking Nu-labour’s arse in the North West. They could win (and probably will) six seats in the EU parliamentary elections in June.
The problem for me is this – why, after years of Nu-labour policies, has the electorate turned to the BNP? By Mr. Hain’s own admission they were already doing well in the 2004 EU elections, and the 2006 local elections. So it’s not just a question of “credit crunch” and “employment” but something deeper – perhaps a growing sense of marginalization?
I don’t for one minute believe that individuals placing their X against a BNP candidate on election day are doing so because they’re inherently racist (although some may be). I believe they’re voting in this way, because they feel ignored, marginalized, and consequently politically powerless. And Mr. Hain, rather than address this issue (which is one of white middle class aspiration), would sooner the BNP be “confronted” and “denied platforms” to spread their message – which is anti-European!
Nu-labour promised a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty European Constitution. Gordon Brown in power changed his mind. Gordon Brown made a speech announcing “British Jobs for British Workers” (stealing some of the BNP’s thunder in the process), then turned round and claimed he didn’t mean that – no, he meant there’d be more training for British Workers to do British jobs.
I suspect bullshit like this, coupled with lies, coupled with enforced “politburo” multiculturalism, has led to a huge segment of the electorate saying enough is enough. It is extremely unlikely that Nu-labour will win as much as a single, that is a solitary, seat in the forthcoming EU elections. And this wound has been totally self-inflicted!
The world is a troubled place, no doubting it. In Britain the government have decided to pull out all the stops with regard to the forthcoming elections to the EU Parliament…they’re seriously concerned the BNP will win out over the other political parties! See HERE.
France is restricting visas for workers from outside the European Union in the face of rising unemployment, according to a policy directive by President Nicolas Sarkozy that was released Tuesday. While the EU is urging Libya to work to stop illegal immigration into Europe. Libya, of course, wants a payout to do so. See HERE.
